Never let anyone define you. You are the only person who defines you. No one can speak for you. Only you speak for you. You are your only voice.

A lot of my colleagues are content to be character actors who are always in the background. I'm not that guy. I'm the guy who wants the limelight. Gimme the ball and I'll run it through a brick wall for you. I'll be your biggest soldier.

You only have but so much time to make an impact or people will forget you. My goal always is to make the biggest impact possible.

You haven't experienced anything until you've been to Africa. You know the world is bigger than you are after you see Africa.

I'll never forget my worst business decision. I bought a Nissan Pathfinder with my first signing bonus. I didn't even have a place to live, but I bought a car. Not a smart move but, believe me, I learned from that mistake.

I was a sports nut. I stayed after school probably three hours every day - from fall, to winter, to spring. I went from football to basketball to track and it started all over again. I loved all of it. I just loved being an athlete and all that it entailed. It really accounts for who I am.

It's great to be strong but strength is nothing without having compassion.
